There are two Americas.
One is white and one is the "other" America.
The large metropolitan areas attract the blacks
and other minotities for the social welfare
sub-culture.
Whites overwhelmingly flee from blacks because
they are repulsed by them, for many good reasons,
including drugs, violence, and thievery.

Interesting you should use the term boogeyman.
When we were kids in the fifties there were black
entrepreneurs who would come into the white
neighborhoods and collect paper and other garbage
in little carts pulled by horses.
We were told he was the boogeyman,
and if we didn't behave we were going to be put out
with the papers for the boogeyman.

Kept us very much in line.
